You know you reached to top of the blogosphere when people send you articles that they think would be interesting. This one comes from a faithful reader. Introducing the Revolight.
These little lights are pretty cool. Not only do the project lights in the right directions, but they save battery by not lighting up the whole wheel. In the past we’ve talked about spoke lights, but I have yet to find one that I like.
They are not in production yet. Here is a link to their kickstarter page. If nothing else it is something to watch out for. I would even go so far as to say that this could be the way of the future for commuter bikes.
By the way, I would like to thank our new columnist Daniel Patterson. I can see good things down the road coming from this one.

These are awesome! There are others out there that attach to the wheel but they don’t serve the purpose of lighting the ground in front of you. Useful and look good, love it!
